Paper: CodePlan: Repository-level Coding using LLMs and Planning
Repository-level coding tasks, such as package migration and making extensive codebase modifications, pose challenges for Large Language Models (LLMs) like GitHub Copilot, as the entire code cannot be fit into prompts.
CodePlan is a a task-agnostic framework, solves this as a planning problem through multi-step chain of edits (plan).
